Amos 2:5-7

Good News Translation

⁵ So I will send fire upon Judah and burn down the fortresses of Jerusalem.”

God's Judgment on Israel

⁶ The Lord says, “The people of Israel have sinned again and again, and for this I will certainly punish them. They sell into slavery honest people who cannot pay their debts, the poor who cannot repay even the price of a pair of sandals. ⁷ They trample^[a] down the weak and helpless and push the poor out of the way. A man and his father have intercourse with the same slave woman, and so profane my holy name.
